Hi Jim. It's just a personal thing probably, but I do like reviewing boards etc, and I wasn't thinking in terms of real time play over Skype or chatrooms, but play by mail, forum etc. As to the links on audiogames.net, each entry does have a link directly to your homepage, I've also

Okay Jim, fair enough, it's your game afterall, it was just a thought. as to the winkit file, one reason i wanted to update the entry pages for all of your games was precisely to stop people from making that mistake. As I said, all of them now contain information on the Winkit file, so

I got some of the games to work by installing any of the Draconis games. My friend, however, can't get The Horse Racing game to work; it just tells her it's not responding, no error message or anything. -- Chris Hallsworth E-mail: ch9...@hotmail.com MSN: ch9...@hotmail.com Skype:

You can actually run the games without installing the Winkit file. I used to do that all the time before I realized that the Winkit file actually organizes the games into a workable order. Before that I was always having to go to the c:\program files\kitchensinc\game name folder (I usually

Hi Arri. The rnib do seem to be rather bad on their board games, though i don't remember a trivial persuite. For games which combine answering questions and moving on a board though, complete with some rather fancy audio, check out http://www.pressakey.net/ apparently their in

Hi dark, I doubt that when people are playing monopoly in chat rooms, Skype conferences etc that the game master or mistress is relating what happens on each turn. Pretty sure that actually all people involved hear the play from the gm computer. So a player just needs to ask the gm to use

Hi all, Correct me if I'm wrong, but I definitely do remember that a person could get an accessible Cludo, I think it was made by the RNIB. Why then now can't I find it anywhere, has it actually stopped being made? Especially at Christmas it would be great to have more board games, if not

Hi Dark, I am sorry, but I will not be putting in the option to say what the dice roll will be in my monopoly game. I am sorry if the dice roll thing makes it so that you can not use the game to play via mail or forum. As I said, it would or could be a total cheat. I just will not put a

Hi Linsy. It's actually fairly streight forward. First compare your combat skill to your enemy's (your enemy's skill will be in the text). that will tell you what colum of the combat results table to look at. So for example if your cs is 10, and your enemy's is 5, you'll be looking in the

Orin, the hole point of age of fable is that it's A, free roaming, and B, always being added to. Try exploring the docks, exploring the city a few more times, and heading out of the city to different places and with different amounts of experience and combat skills, - I haven't even seen
